*** SOFTWARE USED IN REPLICATION ***

Stata version MP 17.0 and R version 4.0.5 were used to run codes for proprietary administrative data in Statistics of Finland closed environment.   


**********************************************************************************************************************************


*** RUNTIME ***

In a Statistics of Finland closed remote access environment with Windows Server x64 (Build 14393), Intel Xeon CPU, 8GB of RAM, the total running time for all the setup and analysis do-files, and R-script using proprietary administrative data was around 3 hours and 6 minutes.

*** DATA REQUIREMENTS ***


Finnish Administrative Data 
Administrative data used in this paper is proprietary and thus it cannot be included for the replication material. This data is detailled in Data_access.pdf.

*** FOLDER STRUCTURE ***

In the main replication folder (<ROOT>) there is a Stata log-file (Replication_log.log) from running the master do-file from the Dofiles subfolder setting up the data and creating all tables and figures using Stata, 
R log-file (Replication_log_R.log) for Figures A2 and A3 using R, proprietary data access description (Data_access.pdf) and this readme-file (README.txt).

The main replication material folder contains one subfolder:

1. AdminData
This folder contains all replication material using the proprietary Finnish administrative data.
\Dofiles subfolder contains a setup do-file for the administrative data and do-files to produce graphs and tables using the administrative data, and a master do-file in order to run all Stata do-files. In addition to that there is an R-script to produce Figures A2 and A3. These files with self-explanatory names are listed below:
